This is the best shrimp, corn, baby potatoes, and smoked sausage recipe! Easy and quick to throw together, this packed with flavour shrimp boil is a must-try and for keeps.

INGREDIENTS

1 pound (0.4 kg) shrimp, shelled, deveined, tail-in
8 ounces (226 grams) baby potatoes, cut into halves
4 tbsp Old Bay Seasoning
12 ounces (340 grams) smoked sausage, cut into pieces (Hillshire Smoked Sausage Rope)
2 ears corn on the cob, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 tbsp chopped parsley, for garnishing
Water, for boiling

CAJUN BUTTER:

1 1/2 tbsp Cajun seasoning (McCormick)
6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

HOW TO MAKE SHRIMP BOIL

Step 1: After filling a tall stockpot halfway with water, bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, add the Old Bay Seasoning, baby potatoes, and corn. Put the lid on and boil for about 8 to 10 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

Step 2: Mix the melted butter and Cajun seasoning until well combined. Set aside.

Step 3: To the pot, add the smoked sausage along with the shrimp. Boil for another minute or until the shrimp is pink.

Step 4: Take the pot off the heat and drain everything in a colander.

Step 5: Add the Cajun butter in a hot skillet along with the shrimp boil ingredients. Stir well and cook over high heat.

Step 6: To a sheet pan or serving platter, transfer the shrimp boil when done. Serve right away garnished with some chopped parsley. Enjoy!

NOTE:

You can make this shrimp boil in a sheet pan. Mix all the ingredients with the spices and seasonings. I use 2 tbsp of Old Bay Seasoning instead of 4. Bake in a 425 degrees F or 220 degrees C oven for about 10 to 12 minutes or until the corn and shrimp are completely cooked.
